When I was a lawyer everybody I knew just wanted to talk about TV and Movies. Working in TV and movies where a thing like me can work. Nobody. Just nobody. For thirteen years… nobody.

Any time an app is set to run on startup. As a standard. With a difficult to find extension. It should come with a name and photo of the developer who did it.

Maybe some kind of scarlet letter. No violence, just a permanent social death.

The biggest surprise I had over the WGA pickets was how frequently someone would tell another Union professional “You can’t expect that to make a living wage for that though.”

It changed me as a person. Because I still believe in unions. But I’ll never believe in reciprocal empathy again.

A cool side effect of a comprehensive legal education these days, is the knowledge that everything you’ve ever done is wrong and all your gods are dead.

Steve Agee as John Economos might be my favorite thing about anything right now.

We Paid Some Etsy Witches to Curse Charlie Kirk If the far-right misogynist with a bad haircut wants to villainize independent women, Jezebel is more than happy to be the hag of his nightmares.

I think I’ve been seriously underestimating Etsy Witches. September 8.

Generally people need to stop being Charlie Brown with this Supreme Court. These rulings at best use inductive reasoning to get where they’ve been told to go. Stop reading them like they are part of an intellectual tradition.

Be honest.
These bigots got marching orders. We need to say it.

Someone cancelled an interview on me today. Last minute.

So I’m sitting in my bedroom in a suit and tie in silence here. In front of a camera.

I guess I just put on comfortable clothes again?

We super duper broke Earth, right?

He’s much more Bugs Bunny during this era.

I got stuck in the rain. And my favorite day bag shrank.

However it shrank into my perfect camera bag…

Look just in case it winds up being “too soon” I think a fatal case of cankles is exactly how I want Donald Trump to go.

Also Fatal Cankles, I offer this name for a punk band or Metropolitan bakery.

Of course you do. Of course you do. Who are you? I stand by it though.

Yeah I’ve seen Superman four times now. And I’m probably gonna go again.

It’s like I got to “re-do” the release of Superman IV. Which is when I learned about pop culture disappointment.

150 Billion Dollars is certainly enough for a good starter Gestapo.

Reminder or warning.

We cannot let the Trump administration silence free speech. Even left leaning publications like *checks notes* The Wall Street Journal?!

I’m so tired.

It really is just a clever Ouija board.

It is truly bonkers. I am right this second watching In Purgatory’s Shadow. A middling episode at best. And it’s still a better hang than 95 percent of modern TV.

Ira Steven Behr and all those writers invented serialized prestige drama. And did it in pajamas against the will of Paramount.

They’re supposed to be a treat. You can’t just eat them by the handful like Skittles.

I just realized I’ve spent twenty years writing waiting for it to read like someone else wrote it

And that’s never gonna happen…

On The Media just used the phrase “bull-stuff” to quote the president.

I am so embarrassed to be an American and an On The Media listener. Honestly it’s the moment that’s permanently changed my relationship with American media. Which was a surprise.

The female gaze is what makes Adam Sandler movies plausible.

I really like that EVERYBODY I have ever met made the same joke at the same time.

Yeah but it had the word female in it and this poster had a big sad about something. Truly up there with why isn’t there an International Men’s Day. (There is an international Men’s day *narrated by Ron Howard*)

Apparently Cuomo is campaigning for Zohran now?

My graduate work was all in ethics of technological innovation. Biological and traditional.

Never occurred to me those would be obsolete. Well it did occur to me. But because I was an edge lord academic trying to intentionally overstate an encroaching authoritarian monoculture.

The struggle is real.

AND IT WAS THE BEST THING EVER, RIGHT?!
